I'm pretty sure they won't remove Holy World because it's like the main map of Bacchus, as well as the fact that it's not a Proleague map. I don't really see proxy hatch working well on other maps other than Neo Medusa (not anymore  ) and Holy World because of the way the maps are designed.On May 23 2009 01:39 Sunyveil wrote: does that mean they made neo medusa impossible for terran again? Turrets/supply depots should be okay, hatcheries shouldn't be. I'll check fomos and clear this up. | ||

It's like saying 4 pool has too much potential for success on 3 player maps with short rush distances (think July's golden mouse OSL final) so we're going to put neutral buildings all over the place so toss can turtle up long enough to steamroll the zerg. | ||

They keep maps like Katrina for 2 seasons but give no time to Battle Royal and Medusa? Lame imo. I don't think this makes sense. You say 'New strats are invented because of new maps'. They bring in a new map (Shadow of Twilight) to replace a comparatively old map (Battle Royal). And yet you complain this is a bad thing? | ||

If proxy hatching is considered some kind of map imbalance than I have no fucking clue what they are thinking. Terran and protoss have been proxy building for fucking YEARS on everymap EVER and z does it once and we get it removed.. rofl. | ||

Uh.. July's 5 pool (not 4 pool) was on Othello, 4 player map. And July and Best were in diagonal positions... Best should have won if he had not decided to be funny and build gateways outside =.=" | ||

Why is KeSPA so obsessed with keeping some form of Medusa? Just get rid of the damn thing and put Central Plains or something in instead of constantly modifying it. | ||

Wait......you can't be serious. That's fucking lame -___- Proxy hatches were so cool, sucks that they removed it. Battle Royal was a nice concept map, but too bad it was mostly zvzs and we didn't see outside bases utilized as much =( | ||
